Does an ultimate weapon exist?

Not true. Laws of physics state that it is impossible to do something with 100% efficiency, due to: friction, gravity, and strong/weak nuclear forces.

suburbianguerilla does make a good point.

and as for the question itself, any weapon can kill a human, and one life wasted, is one to many. any weapon is ultimate in my book. a man with a nuke could simply be shot with a gun before he can launch his bomb. or vice versa. no weapon actually dominates over another weapon. its how we use the weapons.

the biggest thing we need to fear in life is ones self addiction for power and knowledge.

wrong in space it ha been proven that you can make a purpetal motion no matter or gravity

Besides our mind, any weapon that can turn matter into energy can be considered the "ultimate weapon"... scary stuff.

True. By the way nice THAAD misisle pic,Im lovin it!

What I know is in our Governments hands is a Sub-Particle weapon.It splits atoms up or something to that effect.Sub-Particle weapon

Yes true.

You have to remember. The laws of physics don't apply to antimatter. And space pretty much negates your point as well. Antimatter is the real deal.

Yeah but that's IN SPACE. If we were to use antimatter in any form on Earth, the efficiency would be drastically reduced due to atmospheric pressure, molecular collisions, and all other sorts of tom foolery of Earth.

Now in order for it to have 100% eff. 100% of the time, it would need ideal, perfect conditions for it to operate in, one only being space.

If indeed we did acquire a process to put antimatter to use, we would more than likely make the Earth go bye-bye, or..... nope that's it.

That's called an atomic bomb, son.

But here on Earth, the blast is only a percentage of it's true power.

Why do you think the DeathStar made such a big explosion hahaha

^^^^Seriously!!!

OK look what are we looking for exactly?? the biggest weapon would be to somehow artificially create a supernovae, but in the realms of somewhat possible physics... an antimatter bomb would be basically THE Biggest man made explosion. Now if you want a permanent desolation factor the Cobalt 60 theoretical nuclear weapon would be the choice of weapon since the area it affects will send out gamma rays constantly for 5 years.
